Perhaps this is why no 38's have been made available since the "launch" last year.

Nice they went back to this. But from all reports I've heard it's delays on the bracelets/straps. Great colors.

I don’t see how these are any different than what they first brought out. What am I missing?

The date window cut out now has the finished edges with silver.

I think 38mm is great, but what I wanted, the grey/blue dial on the grey rubber strap, came only on the 41mm.

Personally I like the old AT better. Date window disc matches the dial. New model misses the mark

Interesting. Really want to see them in person.

Here they are too lazy to change it on the site.

I don't mind the update but this may push it back to 2024.

Supposedly Omega is going to actually release these soon! Rumor is they're building up inventory right now to not be sold out the moment these are released.

Boutique in Istanbul Airport said they will have their first batch within the next few weeks...I love the fix to the date window...reminds me of the date window from the 38.5mm "Skyfall" Aqua Terra.

This has been laughable. I don't care if it sells out. I'll wait 2 years until it's basically half off.

3 weeks later still no sign. That said I'm not shocked.

It's been over a year. What is another couple of months. It has been so long they had to pay Zoey Kravitz to hype it. I don't believe demand is super strong and if they play around and run it into w and w the hype will diminish.

I've seen a couple of people on IG buy the saffron version so they're finally being released in some parts of the world.

Houston Omega boutique had a James Bond special event last night. They had these AT's on display. The SA said they'll be on sale at the Houston boutique in May. With that being said, the terracotta and saffron versions seems to be the most requested so I expect those not to be readily available.

The Omega boutique in San Francisco has them now.

Yes the 38mm Aqua Terra is out and I just got mine from boutique. The Saffron dial is beautiful. And yes, the date window has been redesigned to add the frame, which could have caused some delay.

Very nice! Seems like the only color that's available is the Saffron. I haven't seen anyone else that's bought the new AT post any other color on IG other than Saffron.

Really nice subtle improvement with the date window frame.

Amazing how something as little as adding a applied date window changed that dial, it makes a huge difference.

In the Taipei Boutique where I bought this, they also have Sandstone and Green dial for sale. I think they are still quite limited and restricted to boutique only for now.

Houston boutique had a James Bond event this past Friday and had the new AT's on display. Boutique said they'll officially be able to sell them in May. They had them for people to view and try on only.

Unfortunately not. They said terracotta is the most popular color with a long waitlist.
